Mark Allen

Mark Allen specializes in tough, hard-hitting fiction that slams you like a bullet in the face.

His action novel "The Assassin's Prayer" was optioned by Showtime. His horror script "Gristle"--now a gritty horror novel--was a semi-finalist in the prestigious 2010 Slamdance Screenplay Competition where it was called "a perfect blend of high drama and blood-and-guts slasher horror."

Allen currently lives in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York with a wife he loves, two daughters he adores, a pair of cats he hates with every fiber of his being, and enough ammunition to ensure he is never bothered by door-to-door salesmen.
